These cannabis gummies keep selling out in 2024

If you've ever struggled to enjoy cannabis due to the harshness of smoking or vaping, you're not alone. That’s why these new cannabis gummies caught our eye.

Mood is an online dispensary that has invented a “joint within a gummy” that’s extremely potent yet federally-legal. Their gummies are formulated to tap into the human body’s endocannabinoid system.

Although this system was discovered in the 1990’s, farmers and scientists at Mood were among the first to figure out how to tap into it with cannabis gummies. Just 1 of their rapid onset THC gummies can get you feeling right within 5 minutes!

Greetings from London!

My kids and I started our first official semester of homeschooling on the go (worldschooling).

I have to admit, I was a bit nervous about this endeavour. After all, I’m not an elementary school teacher. I’m a freelance writer with a fully remote content marketing agency.

And, my goal has been to both homeschool these kiddos AND keep my business afloat. I’ve put a lot on my plate.

So far, we’ve been successful. Here’s how we’re doing it:

I enrolled my children into an online school called OpenEd. It’s a fully online school supported by the state I live in. I can enroll them in the school and then custom-craft their classes.

The kids are using Science is Weird, Beast Academy, and Brave Writer. And we tackle technology, reading/writing, social studies, and art on the go.

Our daily schedule looks a bit like this:

• Wake up

• Freak out

• Eat some food

• The kids get started with their online learning while I write. They usually work for 2-3 hours independently, giving me a good chunk of time to finish my work. Quick note: I’m not sure how this approach would work with every kid. Thankfully, it has worked with my kids so far. They are pretty independent learners and mostly self-guided.

• Eat lunch

• After lunch, I put work away, and we head out into the world for art, social studies, English, and tech lessons. So far, they’ve visited The Tower of London, The British Library, and The National Gallery. They’ve also navigated the bus system and subway. The ride is about an hour, so they read on the way into the city.

• Today, we’re at the Science Museum. I enrolled them in the Wonderlab, so they’re wandering around the lab together while I work.

• In the evening, we pick a new cuisine for dinner. They’ve enjoyed food from India, Afghanistan, Pakistan, England (bland in comparison), Taiwan, Italy, and China. The cuisine with the most rave reviews so far = Pakistan.

• We take the train or bus home and read on the way. I’ve decided to only allow iPads for their online school and then put them away. They’ve been reading and drawing their little brains out, and it’s the best thing we’ve done so far!

So, that’s where we’re at. Next time I write this, we’ll be on our way to York with an update about some of the challenges of this lifestyle.

From England with love,

Ashley
